Bricks that Build Us Book 2 -...

Rob Howat

Since you recognize that things are going dangerously wrong both worldwide and on our streets, this is a series of four short books for you. They develop the calling for immediate action with many of the avoidable causes identified, listed and remedies stated clearly all in 'crystal clear' language. Now is the time to push back and protect our loved ones, our young, those who are vulnerable and all our futures. Later may well be too late. For many thinking people there is a well-founded and growing disquiet about where our world is going. Undeniably we observe that wasteful preoccupation with owning things which has replaced family values, sound reason, decency and necessary self-discipline for far too many. The me-first society focuses upon personal gratification while rejecting the more central need to think and work together to maintain our community and social family. Discarded is the we-first, polite and supportive normality of quieter times, led now by the shallow, self-interested more grotesque ideas, ideals and human actors. Through this storm of mediocracy and shallow existence can be heard the tramping of media moguls, the infected internet and dead actors of artificial "intelligence", cold scam 'phone callers that daily threaten our loved ones and us. We must most urgently identify our enemies with their manipulative control methods and develop effective counterarguments with successful countermeasures. Unified, self-disciplined, clarified actions, focused on restoring our interdependent caring communities, can and will successfully rebuild common sense and social sanity one brick at a time.

One Nation Under the Influence -...

PhD Kevin A. Sabet

We are in the midst of the worst drug crisis in American history. What are we going to do about it?Around 100,000 Americans died of a drug overdose last year—nearly double the number who died in Vietnam. More than 1,000,000 have perished since 2000, thanks largely to an explosion of fentanyl and other addictive opioids. But fentanyl, abundant methamphetamine, and other lethal drugs are not the only things that are killing us: our policy is. So far, America has lacked the will to do better. That must change, and this book tells us how.No one is immune, which is why Kevin Sabet has authored this remarkable book. Sabet, dubbed the "the quarterback of the new anti-drug movement" by Salon, has spent most of his life battling the destructive effects of drugs. In One Nation Under the Influence, he asks hard questions and provides clear answers, taking listeners from the streets of San Francisco and New York to the southern border, up to Canada, and across to Europe to show how we can chart a necessary way forward. The solutions are out there, if only we have the will to apply them.

Turn Toward The Storm - How I...

Bevan Cox

On the surface, Bevan Cox looked like a man who had it all: career success, physical strength, and social admiration. Inside, he was drowning in childhood trauma, betrayal, codependency, and a justice system turned against him. When the noise became impossible to silence and his final goodbye was seconds from being uploaded, a divine interruption stopped him.
Turn Toward the Storm is that story.
Told with gut-wrenching honesty and zero sugarcoating, this audiobook is a raw memoir of hitting absolute rock bottom—and choosing to rebuild anyway. Through false arrests, trauma bonds, narcissistic abuse, and suicidal ideation, Bevan doesn’t just survive—he learns to heal. What emerges is a powerful roadmap for anyone carrying invisible scars they’ve been taught to ignore.
Listeners walk through jail cells, therapy rooms, and courtrooms engineered for his downfall. You’ll step into the world of fitness competitions, where discipline becomes a lifeline. You’ll sit in the quiet, brutal moments where faith stops being a concept and becomes the only thing left standing.
Along the way, you’ll learn how to set boundaries, rewire destructive beliefs, dismantle the ego, and rebuild an identity from the ashes of who you used to be. This is not a story about perfection or performance: it’s about courage, responsibility, and the radical decision to fight for a life you no longer believe you deserve.
Turn Toward the Storm is for anyone who’s been told to “stay strong” while silently falling apart. It’s for those who grew up in chaos, loved the wrong people, were betrayed by systems meant to protect them, or wake up wondering why they’re still here.
If your pain has ever whispered that your story is over, this audiobook stands as proof that it’s not. Peace isn’t a reward for the perfect—it’s a decision made by the brave.
